We had a super stay. What a great city - and such a central location from which to explore it. The accomodation had everything we needed and lots of space. Very easy communicating with the owner / property manager. All worked super smoothly. Our only feedback is it can be a little noisy - the bar downstairs and the heating system.

Couldn’t have asked for a better host and location for my team to experience Charleston! A perfect and centrally located place to stay. Very spacious for 7 of us. Loved the charm and comfort of this condo. Hated to leave!
5.0
Beautifully decorated, lots of light, and an open kitchen and living area that provided our large family group with plenty of hang-out space.
The property manager was extremely responsive when we needed more kitchen supplies. The high-end range and fridge were appreciated!
Terrific location, as advertised.

The property was perfect for our “girls weekend”. Accommodations were extremely comfortable and the location was perfect - walking distance to great restaurants, shops and the marketplace!

We were getting married in Charleston and put the five adult children here for the wedding - it was perfect. They each had their own space (with spouse as applicable), were within walking distance to anything they wanted to do and were able to cook and lounge at will. The rooftop deck was perfect for morning coffee.
We will return to have it all to ourselves next time!

Overall a great experience. The main-entry door locking/unlocking process was a bit challenging due to the door needing to be pulled very tight to get the deadbolt to engage for locking and unlocking. Other than that, we really enjoyed the property and our time spent.

Awesome VRBO that was just as described. Spent a long weekend here with friends and had a great time.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the Penthouse on King. The location can't be beat if walkability is important to you and your guests. The host left some wine and chocolate for us upon arrival which was a nice touch. The space was clean and bright and the furniture comfortable. The home is also well decorated.
A few improvements could be made to align with other comparable properties in the area:
1) The addition of window blinds or, at a minimum, room darkening curtains. Both upstairs bedrooms had no window shades or blinds but rather simply sheer, thin curtains. Be prepared to bring an eye mask for sleeping purposes but hopefully this is a feature the host will add.
2) We did not have enough paper products, specifically toilet paper, to last our group the length of our stay. We ended up purchasing our own rolls.
3) The cleanliness of the alley/breezeway where you come and go from the Penthouse needs to be cleaned up. There was a lot of broken glass we had to avoid each time we came and went. Due to the location on King I suggest someone hose down this area at least weekly due to it's proximity to the bars.

This place is even more spectacular than the photos can show! Spent three nights there with eight girls celebrating a friend's 50th Birthday ! PROS: Location , cleanliness, decor, so light and bright CONS: Noise ...not from bars etc.. but garbage trucks, street sweepers, sanitation people, window washers....Noise starts very very early in the mornings...so light and bright (window coverings are pretty much sheer so the sun comes in very early in the morning ) ....it sleeps eight if you blow up a mattress ( they have them on property) ....I would for sure stay here again if I didn't mind the noise and honestly the place is so nice and in such a great location that I would probably just bring earplugs.
We had beautiful birthday dinner on the rooftop with a chef from Fire and Knives. I highly recommend Tharen. He made the birthday dinner so amazing !

I can’t even begin to describe how amazing this stay was - absolutely incredible location, top of the line finishes, great communication. We were in awe of the grandeur - the photos do not do it justice. The beds were awesome (one friend called her husband in Mt. Pleasant and jokingly asked him to bring their mattress and swap it out). The rooftop is insane! As Joyner said, Co across the street had the best spicy margarita- we spent a few hours there people watching and imbibing. Steps from great shopping and dining (we visited caviar and bananas for quick bites and it was delish). We did an instant shoot which I highly recommend for a group/family (Nicole was fabulous). Be aware the door takes a bit of practice to get in/out of (pull hard) and one of the handles to roof deck door was loose but nothing that impacted our enjoyment. Light sleepers and those sensitive to sunlight may want to consider packing earplugs, and an eye mask (or sleep in the downstairs bedroom). I personally loved the natural light and we were lucky to have perfect weather all 4 days.

Nice property in a good location. There was one night where the bar below us was very loud after 10:00 pm and kept us awake. Also, there are 3 fireplaces on the property but the only one working was upstairs which was unfortunate because the upstairs was almost too hot and the downstairs was chilly. Given the cost of this property I was disappointed.

This is the perfect location to enjoy all that downtown Charleston has to offer. It is very quiet and secluded but right in the middle of the action.
5.0
The interior of the apartment was wonderful with a full kitchen and great bathrooms - only 5 of us but lots of space for a couple more. Upstairs bedrooms are very large and wonderful living room with big windows and comfortable sectional. We loved the location and even though on King street did not find it noisy. We like being close to everything. Owner/PM was very responsive.

The apartment is in the heart of King Street. Everything you want to see in Charleston is walkable or if you prefer hopping on a rickshaw. There was construction going on so we weren’t able to enjoy the rooftop patio and it was quite loud Thursday and Friday but I’m sure when it’s complete it will be beautiful. The only thing to know is you are right in the middle of all the action. Music loud until 2 am. My young adult children had a blast and was so convenient to walk every where but if your looking for quiet this would not be the place for you. We would definitely stay here again if we returned to Charleston.

Fun Adventure
Enjoyed the property. Perfect for three couples. Great location.
Minor thoughts to help you improve. Should have multiple keys (maybe in the house, not the lockbox). We didn’t find your housekeeping page til the last day because it was in one of the cabinets, not out on the table. Temperature in the upstairs was an issue. Heat was left on and we figured it out but a pain and no response to our question on that. Noise out back was loud (construction) but not much you can do except warn the guest so we can bring earplugs.
Overall, very nice stay and the property worked well. Little touches can make it even better!
